suggestions and corresponding revision by the TWC, the Pan
will be presented to the Board of Regents for final approval and
the same shall be multiplied and disseminated to all
departments/units, colleges and campuses.

The R&D Strategic Plan shall then be translated into 5-Year
Medium Term R&D Plans called Work Plan, specifying among
other things, the sequence of R&D events to be pursued in the
research-extension continuum. To ensure commitment and full
support in implementing the Plans, it is important that all those
who are directly and indirectly involved in the execution of the
Plans, its programs and activities, to include the Heads of
Departments, Directors of Research Centers/Units, Deans of
Colleges, University R&D Director, Budget Officer, the
collaborating institutions and possibly, donor agencies, should
be presented in crafting the 5-Year Work Plans.
Section 1.c. Implementing the R&D Plans

The Strategic R&D Plans, the Medium-Term R&D Work
Plan and the Annual R&D Action Plan shall be translated into
Operational Action Plans in research units of departments and/or
research centers. From this Operational Plan, an RDET
Employee Work Plan shall be developed on a semestral basis
divided into five months.
The Employee Work Plan will be the basis of monitoring and
evaluation of the RDET employees in meeting the goals and
objectives of the strategic plan, medium-term plan and action
plan.

The progress in meeting the goals and objectives of the
plans at various levels should be fed to the R&D Coordinators of
constituent campuses and cluster campuses on a monthly basis
and to the University R&D Directors on a semestral basis.
Among other considerations, the monitoring and evaluation plan
should be able to assess the inputs, activities and processes,
outcomes, effects and possibly, initial impacts against the define
objectives.
Section 2. Research Proposals

A Research Proposal is necessary before research project (program,
project, study) can be properly implemented. The detailed methodological rigor
is what ensures that a research is scientifically conducted. Hence only
researches that passed through the evaluation and screening process
implemented by the University with the appropriately approved research
proposal is recognized by the University. For the purpose, the proposal should
follow a standard research proposal formats (e.g. DOST councils, DA-BAR,
